You want that When?
June 9th, 2015 by Clint Padgett
There’s no consensus on the economic cost of job burnout (sustained, chronic stress), but some estimates top $300 billion. Burnout’s toll on individual projects, or project portfolios, can be equally dire – missed deadlines, reduced project quality, budget overruns and diminished career prospects.
Every project manager probably knows some of the signs of burnout in themselves and their teams…but how many know some of the signs that burnout is about to happen?
- A deadline that get pushed ahead to make a sale, land a contract, beat a competitor, or launch at a trade show, without project team input.
- Pre-planning and charter development without the active input of all stakeholders and team members on risks, potential problems and timeframes.
- Inadequate consideration by managers and team members of the impact of their other professional and personal commitments to the project schedule.
Projects succeed when team members feel a real stake in the process, in the project, in their role and in the team itself. The Project Success Method energizes teams and keeps them energized from the beginning of the project to the end…ahead of time, and on budget.
